2:35 PM Customer: Why BDP-S780 DLNA player's send all the videos (network and USB) to a frequency of 60Hz TV, although source video was shot at a frequency of 50Hz or 25Hz?This Applies to all videos from a network or USB. Not for Blu-ray disc!

2:38 PM Jaye - (C4HR): Thanks for waiting. I will be glad to assist you in providing the information about the specification of the Blu-ray player in senting all the videos to afrequency of 60 HZ TV.

2:41 PM Jaye - (C4HR): Thanks for the information.

2:45 PM Jaye - (C4HR): Please let me know if the picture appears in 60 HZ while playing the disc in the Blu-ray player.

2:47 PM Customer: Not with a disc! Only via USB and network!

2:47 PM Jaye - (C4HR): Thanks for the information.

2:47 PM Customer: When the video begins, the player 1080p and 60hz.

2:48 PM Customer: Sorry, I repeat my question:Why BDP-S780 DLNA player's send all the videos (network and USB) to a frequency of 60Hz TV, although source video was shot at a frequency of 50Hz or 25Hz?

2:50 PM Jaye - (C4HR): Okay.

2:50 PM Jaye - (C4HR): Please confirm if the discs that you're trying to playback in the Blu-ray player supports 24Hz.

2:52 PM Customer: Yes, the player also supports 24Hz my tv (XBR8).

2:52 PM Jaye - (C4HR): Thanks for the confirmation.

2:52 PM Jaye - (C4HR): Are you using a Sony TV?

2:53 PM Customer: Yes, XBR8 (55'')

2:55 PM Jaye - (C4HR): Please wait while I get the exact information for you.

2:55 PM Customer: Okay, let yourself time!

2:59 PM Jaye - (C4HR): Please stay with me. I'm still checking.

2:59 PM Customer: Okay.

3:01 PM Jaye - (C4HR): Thanks for waiting.

3:02 PM Jaye - (C4HR): Please confirm if the "Cinema Conversion Mode" is set to AUTO in the screen settings menu of the BLu-ray player.

3:06 PM Customer: The problem only exists in the network (DLNA) and USB.

3:07 PM Jaye - (C4HR): I am sorry for the typo

3:08 PM Jaye - (C4HR): *settings.

3:09 PM Customer: Yes, BD/DVD Rom 1080/24p output is set to "AUTO".

3:09 PM Customer: It would give an option to switch, 60hz <-> 24Hz. This could be remedied in a new firmware.

3:10 PM Customer: In conclusion: Take a USB stick with a video file. It is played with 60Hz not 25Hz.

3:10 PM Jaye - (C4HR): Okay.

3:12 PM Jaye - (C4HR): Surely I'll forward this to our concerned department, so that they can provide this feature with the furture firmware update.

I would like the ability to delete trophies from my psn account (Yes, I know they are stored on a cloud profile) that are from games I no longer intent to play or that I played once and have no intentions of ever playing again. Thank you.

I do not understand one thing. Is it because Sony hardware device(TV) does not support subtitles over DLNA that serviio cannot show them even after transcoding or otherwise ? Or it is the development of serviio profiles for dlna the issue.

- Serviio support subtitles on exernal srt file, but Sony device does not support this.- Serviio support mkv/avi streaming in native format (these stream could include subtitle tracks), but not all sony devices support mkv or avi format. (Sony BDP support mkv/subtitle and avi/subx)- Serviio does not support subtitle burning on video track.

As per your second point since serviio supports subtitle on streaming it must be doing it while transcoding too. So if my Sony device does not support mkv I should be able to see the subtitles on trancoding. But that is not the case. Please clarify. I cannot support testing on my TV is required

Because its too slow, this the why I don't use PS3 Media Server...too slow to browse a large library.I disable serviio library update, and manually force when new media were added...

Embedded subtitles with mkv are supported, which means converting every avi to mkv first then, doesn't really seem like an option.If they support it over usb, it's only a small step to supporting external subtitles over network too. The question is will they ever do this AND bring an update to their models...

On the PS3 Media Server it is possible to choose between 1.4, 1.6 and 1.8 in the size of the legend, and the color of it. I would do the same in Serviio. This configuration option is available? SA and will not this next update Serviio? It would be very useful for people who are away from tv and has vision problems in addition to old people.

Don't know what the status is for past hardware, but my two BD players will play MKV video rips of DVDs with selectable captions. I can select multiple audio tracks as well. What won't work with MKV files is Blu-Ray rip captions. If They are ripped into M2TS, then the captions will display. But in MKV, the player shows there are captions available but never appear when selected. Multiple audio tracks work with BD rips as well, although I have some that will freeze the player when sending HD audio and others that send the bitstream with no issues. I think it's DTS MasterAudio that sometimes (but not all videos) hiccups, while Dolby TrueHD plays fine. Don't quote me, I may have them backwards...
